The present embodiment relates to a camera device including a magnet and a coil. The magnet includes: a first magnet disposed on each of first and second side surfaces of a camera module, and having a different polarity in a top portion and a bottom portion of the surface facing the coil; and a second magnet disposed on each of third and fourth side surfaces of the camera module, and having a different polarity on both side portions of the surface facing the coil. The coil includes: a first coil facing the first magnet; a second coil facing the first magnet and electrically isolated from the first coil; and a third coil facing the second magnet and electrically isolated from the first and second coils.
